Now on the far side of the moon, only our Chinese five-star red flag can fly on it!
Chang'e-6 successfully reached the far side of the moon, and the attitudes of various countries are different, the United States is stubborn and does not admit that it is lagging behind, France is extremely excited, and even Japan admires us this time.
However, the fly in the ointment is that after the successful launch of Chang'e-6 to the far side of the moon, the landing position has deviated, 16.7 kilometers from the intended position, and the most unacceptable thing is that India has "far surpassed" us in this regard.
You must know that the Luna-3 launched by India has a landing error of only a few hundred meters, and Chang'e-6 is 46 times worse than India.
Aren't we inferior to India in terms of space science and technology?
In fact, we shouldn't think like this, as early as more than ten years ago, we didn't have too many standards for launching a satellite, and at that time, as long as we could send a satellite to the moon, it was already a very difficult thing, so no one would think about it so much.
However, since the mainland has taken off in the aerospace industry, our lunar landing program has begun to become more and more perfect, and people have begun to attach more and more importance to it in their hearts and have begun to place high hopes on the mainland's aerospace industry.
After the mainland's Chang'e-6 successfully made a soft landing on the surface of the moon and completed the sampling mission, people discovered something amazing.
Although Chang'e-6 completed its mission, the fly in the ointment is that the location where it landed was very different from the expected position, what is going on?
On June 2, the mainland Chang'e-6 probe successfully landed on the far side of the moon, and then there was a "voice" from the moon on social media, which was sent back by Chang'e-6, which sent a message to the people of the motherland: "I am digging on the moon!" The IP address is Moon".
This is another great news from Chang'e-6 since its successful launch, which proves the mainland's strong aerospace strength, but as Chang'e-6 continues to transmit "good news" back to Earth, another voice has appeared.
It turned out that because of the deviation of the final landing position of Chang'e-6, and this deviation still reached 17 kilometers, you must know that India's Luna 3, the landing deviation is only a few hundred meters, our aerospace engineering is world-class, how can even India not compare?
They can control the landing deviation to within a few hundred meters, can't we do it, of course this is not the case, let's not find faults, in fact, in many aspects, the mainland's aerospace program does not know how many times ahead of India.
Just look at the Chang'e-6 just landed on the moon, it has completed several things that other countries can't accomplish, according to the images sent back by Chang'e-6 from the moon, we can intuitively feel that its landing is particularly stable.
The most unbelievable thing is that after Chang'e-6 completed the mission of collecting lunar soil, judging from the footage transmitted by the surveillance camera, the word "medium" was left on the surface of the moon.
You must know that the middle in Henan dialect represents the meaning of affirmation, and the performance of Chang'e-6 is indeed very "medium", and this unique mark also warms our hearts, but shifting the topic back to the deviation of the landing position, we can't deny the ability of Chang'e-6, but does this deviation mean that there is still a certain gap between us and the West in aerospace?
In fact, the landing deviation of Chang'e-6 is also excusable, which does not mean that we are inferior to India, and our deviation is also in line with the setting, not because of accidents.
First of all, we need to know that Chang'e-6 has completed the set mission of this lunar landing, and it has done a good job, and the deviation is also within a controllable range.
It is undeniable that there is a gap between such deviations and other countries' lunar landing equipment, and Japan's SLIM lunar exploration intelligent lander, between the actual landing position and the intended landing position, has been perfectly controlled to only 55 meters.
Even India's Chandrayaan-3 lander controls the actual coordinates and pre-selected coordinates within 360 meters, so our Chang'e-6 probe still has a certain gap with them.
India has always aimed to catch up with and surpass the mainland, but I didn't expect that our Chang'e-6 probe this time had a deviation of 46 times that of others, but if you look at the data, the continent's previous lunar landing programs have long been ahead of India, not inferior to it.
For example, the Chang'e-3 launched by the mainland, the deviation has been controlled within 600 meters, but with the upgrading of the continental space probe, this deviation problem has gradually been released, and we only focus on other aspects of the lunar landing program.
For example, the difficulty of our moon landing program has increased a lot, after all, it is landing on the far side of the moon, and the landforms on the far side of the moon are basically craters, and they are densely packed with craters.
Therefore, this time, we must make it a top priority to land smoothly and safely on the far side of the moon, and no country can do this alone.
As long as our Chang'e-6 probe can land on the far side of the moon smoothly, it will be the first probe in the world to land on the far side of the moon, and only our country can achieve such an achievement.
And because it is the first one, our Chang'e-6 will face much greater difficulties, but fortunately, Chang'e-6 is the top probe developed by our scientific research team, and it has successfully landed on the uneven far side of the moon.
First of all, Pakistan and France, many young people also came to China from abroad to watch the launch of Chang'e-6, and our Pakistani brothers even broadcast the whole rocket launch process.
And the mainland's Chang'e-6 also carried parts from other countries into space, such as Pakistan and the mainland's cooperation, carried a small satellite on Chang'e-6, and also took two photos of the sun and the moon, which is said to eventually be written into their textbooks.
France and Italy have also cooperated with us in carrying their own tools on the Chang'e-6 probe.
Even the European Union's space agency rushed to contact us, hoping that China would help send an EU-developed negative ion detector into space.
You must know that Pakistan is our brother, and it is understandable for brothers to help each other, but other Western countries used to look down on us and thought that it was impossible for us to develop a detector, but now we have not only done it, but also made them envious.
They also changed their old faces, and rushed to ask for cooperation with us, China, and we helped them send these machines up, but the data is shared by the two countries, and both sides can achieve a win-win situation.
